DA makes fighting racism its number two priority behind dealing with members who are clearly racist

CAPE TOWN (In Other News) - The Democratic Alliance has added another tier to its no holds barred onslaught on racism. The party said it will fight “racism in general” in addition to fighting it in its own ranks. South Africa’s unofficial opposition aimed to achieve its objective with a special “Racism Is Everywhere” task force assembled yesterday.

“Racism is not unique to the DA; it’s all over the place,” said Frans Kruger head of the newly found task force mandated to fight racism “on all fronts”. Kruger said his team will focus on racism in the workplace, the private sector, the public sector, the military, certain restaurants, on the beaches and on the sports field.

The former SAP detective, however, believed racism may also have made it into private conversations and on to cell phones of DA members. He said his task force will leave “no stone unturned” in its hunt for racism adding they’ll use all the resources at their disposal including Google Maps and an updated DA member’s list.

“You’ll be surprised where you’ll find racism these days – on the TV, behind the couch, on top of the fridge. There have even been signs of it in restroom cubicles and shopping queues,” he said. “The DA has already recommitted itself to the fight [against racism]. Our main drive now is to find it.”
